The Iraqi army troops have pushed ISIS (Daesh / ISIL) terrorists back from Fallujah General Hospital in the Western province of Anbar.

"The ISIS left behind scores of the dead and wounded members and fled its positions near the general hospital," the sources said, adding, "The hospital and its surroundings are now under the full control of the Iraqi army men."

"In addition to liberating the Fallujah general hospital, the Iraqi Armed Forces have also imposed full control over Jisr al-Tafaha," the sources said.

"The Iraqi soldiers also liberated several buildings inside the strategic city of al-Karma one of the terrorist group’s last strongholds," the sources added.

Reports said earlier today that the Iraqi army continued to advance against ISIS in Fallujah in Anbar province, after Baghdad announced the beginning of military operation to recapture the key town.
